lyrics

Oh the word from down river has come
There's a fire burning bright as the sun
And the embers float high like the stars in the sky
Oh you neighbors and friends gather round gather round
For the old general store's burning down

There were many a sad heavy heart
As the snow swirled around in the dark
Such a sad wretched sight in the old town tonight
Oh you neighbors and friends gather round gather round
For the old general store's burning down

She'd the heart of a sycamore tree
Sang the song of the river so free
She'd a memory as long as a long heron's song
Oh you neighbors and friends gather round gather round
For the old general store's burning down

We remember the old meeting place
And the warmth of her loving embrace
And though far I may roam it still feels I've come home
Oh you neighbors and friends gather round gather round
For the old general store's burning down

about

The Tillers Cincinnati, Ohio

"In their lives, and in their music, all three band members embrace a return to simplicity, a longing for freedom, and hope for the future. It is fitting then that these American Characters would devote a song to Highway 50, a road that, like the country it traverses, has seen its share of hardship and history and still keeps pressing forward."

-Tom Brokaw American Character Along Highway 50
